PILOG PROJECT FOR THE DTMI CRA PROGRAM

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 描述（由申请人提供）：本试点研究的总体目标是评价在杜克大学转化医学研究所（DTMI）内设立研究助理组织（RAO）的可行性、方法学和经济学。 DTMI社区研究协会（DTMI CRA）计划旨在消除在社区实践中进行临床研究的行政负担，增加社区提供者参与生成结果以支持循证实践，并增强研究结果对更广泛人群的普遍性。 这将通过建立一个教育计划和发展一个满足社区提供者需求的研究基础设施来实现。 DTMI CRA计划将涵盖整个医疗保健领域，包括医院、提供者办公室、公共卫生诊所和社区参与者。 为了实现这些目标，本研究提出了以下具体目标：1）通过邮寄和在线调查，评估对不同级别的临床研究参与感兴趣的社区提供者的比例; 2）为社区提供者编制关于良好临床实践、研究道德和社区卫生的在线培训模块，然后评估完成时间，反馈，和满意度的培训; 3）评估的组成部分，临床研究支持所需的实践网站，然后定制临床研究支持的需要，社区的做法; 4）库存的数量和类型的临床研究，可在整个杜克大学企业，将是适当的社区提供者参与; 5）总结可行性、方法和成本; 6）评估社区医生目前参与正在进行的研究项目，并启动一项新的基于社区的临床试验，以评估与目标1-5的结果有关的情况;（7）积极参与本合作协议所建立的网络，以建立一个全国性的系统。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility, methodology, and economics of setting up a Research Associates Organization (RAO) within the Duke University Translational Medicine Institute (DTMI). The DTMI Community Research Associates (DTMI CRA) program aims to remove administrative burdens to performing clinical research within community practices, increase participation of community providers in generating findings to support evidence-based practices, and enhance the generalizability of research findings to a broader population. This will be accomplished through establishing an educational program and developing a research infrastructure that meets the needs of the community providers. The DTMI CRA program will encompass the entire spectrum of healthcare with representation of hospitals, provider offices, public health clinics, and community participants. To address these goals, the study proposes the following specific aims to: 1) assess the proportion of community providers with an interest in clinical research participation at different levels via a mailed and online survey; 2) compile online training modules on good clinical practices, research ethics, and community health tailored for community providers, followed by an assessment of the time for completion, feedback, and satisfaction with training; 3) assess the components of clinical research support required by practice sites, then tailor clinical research support to the needs of the community practice; 4) inventory the number and type of clinical research studies available throughout the Duke University enterprise that would be appropriate for community provider involvement; 5) summarize the feasibility, methodology, and costs; 6) assess current participation of community practitioners in ongoing research projects, and initiate a new community-based clinical trial for evaluation relative to the findings of Aims 1-5; and 7) participate actively in the network created by this Cooperative Agreement to create a national system.
